'''Whomp King''' is a character in the ''[[Mario (series)|Mario]]'' series. He is the king of all the [[Whomp]]s. The Whomp King's first appearance was in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' as the boss of the [[Whomp's Fortress]].

The Whomp King makes his debut in ''[[Super Mario 64]]''. He hates those who don't show respect towards his kind. When he is confronted on top of [[Whomp's Fortress]] in ''Super Mario 64'', he makes a short speech, then engages Mario in battle. Like most Whomps, his only attack is to fall face-first in an attempt to crush his opponent. However, this is also his weakness, because in the time it takes him to recover and stand up, the player can [[Ground Pound]] his back. After being Ground Pounded three times, the Whomp King will be defeated and the player will receive a [[Power Star]]. For some reason, if the player wall kicks into the Whomp King and jumps away from him before the fight, Whomp King will talk to the player as soon as they land. In this way, players may fall off the arena, in which case Whomp King will talk to the player and will then initiate the fight, only for the battle to end seconds later, since Mario is not allowed to move very far from a boss he is fighting with.
